Depending on how you enter our Prize Draws, how you interact with us, any relevant Club and the Prizes you win, other rules may apply to you, including our Terms of Use & Subscription Terms of Use and any additional rules imposed by any Club for any Prize Draw (together, as applicable, the “Additional Rules”). Each set of Additional Rules can be found in the footer of each page of the Website under the section “Legal” or within the details of each particular Prize Draw.

Any reference to the “Official Rules” with respect to the subject matter of any Additional Rules includes the applicable Additional Rules.
2. Binding Contract. These Official Rules (including the applicable Additional Rules) form a binding contract between the Promoter, the Club and each Prize Draw participant (a “Participant”).

If you do not agree to these Official Rules (including the applicable Additional Rules) do not enter the Prize Draw(s).
3. Updates to the Official Rules. These Official Rules may be updated from time to time. Please check these Official Rules (including all relevant Additional Rules) each time you enter any Prize Draw to ensure that you understand the terms that apply at the time that you enter that Prize Draw.
ELIGIBILITY: To be eligible to enter a Prize Draw or be awarded the prize(s) identified on each Prize Draw’s webpage on the Website (each a “Prize(s)”), a Participant must fully comply with the Official Rules (including the Additional Rules).

HOW TO ENTER: Each Prize Draw will have a starting date and time and ending date and time (the “Entry Period”) specified in the Additional Rules. Only those entries received by the Promoter during the Entry Period will be valid. The Promoter will be the official timekeeper for all Prize Draws.
1. Prize Draws: All Prize Draws require each Participant to be registered with ClubFunder before being able to enter a Prize Draw. To register with ClubFunder, visit the Website and select the ‘Get Started’ button and follow the instructions. Once registered, ClubFunder will provide the following two (2) methods of entry to any Prize Draw:
  1. Paid Method of Entry (“Paid Method of Entry”): To enter by this method, visit www.ClubFunder.co.uk and select “Find a Draw” button to search for your preferred Prize Draw. Choose the applicable entry fee amount(s) to purchase entries ( “Entry Fee” ). Each Entry Fee amount will come with a set number of entries into the chosenPrize Draw. Follow the instructions to enter your payment information and complete your payment. Once your payment is complete, you will automatically receive the number of entries you selected and be entered for a chance to win the Prize Draw. You can enter as many times as you wish so long as you don’t exceed the maximum Entry Limit (as defined below), if applicable.
    ClubFunder may, in its discretion, run various promotions in connection with the Paid Method of Entry. For example, it may, for a temporary period during the Entry Period, offer Participants “bonus entries” in connection with the Paid Method of Entry, or it may offer Participants the opportunity to enter multiple Prize Draws simultaneously, for a reduced Entry Fee. Each entry that is purchased in connection with any special promotion (a) will constitute a single, independent entry in the applicable Prize Draw(s), (b) will be treated in exactly the same way as any other entry to the Prize Draw(s) (including being subject to any applicable Entry Limit), and (c) will have the same chance of winning as any other entry. Any additional terms applicable in relation to a special promotion will be made clear to Participants taking advantage of a special promotion prior to entry.
  2. Alternate Method of Entry (“Alternate Method of Entry”): Write or type your full, legal name, home address (no post office box addresses accepted), city, post code, phone number (optional), email address and the full name of the Prize Draw you want to enter and the name of the Club hosting the Prize Draw (for example, “Bishop Auckland Snooker Club – 20 Hours Table Time & £50 Drinks Voucher”), on either a postcard or letter. Post the completed entry to ClubFunder’s Registered Office. No mechanically reproduced entries are permitted. There is a limit of one (1) entry per outer mailing envelope or postcard. Each eligible entry received via the Alternate Method of Entry will be equivalent to a single entry into the relevant Prize Draw. The entry will be deemed to be submitted at the point of receipt and processing by the Promoter. You can enter by the Alternative Method of Entry as many times as you wish so long as you don’t exceed any applicable, maximum Entry Limit.
2. Monthly Subscriber Cash Draws: ClubFunder may, in its sole and absolute discretion, allow Participants to enter Cash Draws by a monthly subscription on the Website (each a “Monthly Subscriber Cash Draw” ) subject to the Subscription Terms of Use. Monthly Subscriber Cash Draws are those Prize Draws where:
  (a) Participants who have a monthly subscription that is priced at a level greater than £2.50 per month during the specific timeframe in the Additional Rules will be automatically entered into the Monthly Subscriber Cash Draw for the particular Club chosen; and
  (b) Participants who have an active monthly subscription on the Website during the specific timeframe in the Additional Rules (and the relevant subscription payment has not been refunded) will be automatically entered into all subsequent Monthly Subscriber Cash Draws for their chosen Club within the specified timeframe applicable to the level of subscription until their subscription is cancelled or the applicable Monthly Subscriber Cash Draw is cancelled.
  (c) – Monthly subscribers may purchase additional entries into any Prize Draw via the Paid Method of Entry or the Alternative Method of Entry in addition to entry via a Monthly Subscriber Cash Draw.
ENTRY LIMITATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS: Only accurate and complete entries submitted and received by the Promoter during the Entry Period are eligible. Any inaccurate, incomplete, illegible, corrupted, or untimely entries are void and ineligible to win. Proof of submission will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by the Promoter. The Promoter is not responsible for lost, late, illegible, mutilated, delayed, postage due, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, misdirected, technically corrupted or garbled entries, or for other submission problems of any kind, whether caused by mechanical, human or electronic error, all of which are void and ineligible to win. Additionally, the Promoter is not responsible for any telephone, electronic, hardware, software, network, Internet, or computer malfunctions, failures, or difficulties. If a Participant’s entry fee is refunded, any entries associated with such entry fee will be withdrawn and not eligible to win.
1. Entry Limit: Unless the Additional Rules say otherwise, there is no cumulative maximum number of entries that any one person may obtain (the “Entry Limit”). However, in respect of the Paid Method of Entry only, the Promoter reserves the right at any time to (i) introduce an Entry Limit; and/or (ii) limit the amount that any Participant may spend (whether in aggregate, on a particular Prize Draw, or via a particular payment method) in a defined period or otherwise. Unless the Additional Rules say otherwise, there shall be no such Entry Limit in respect of the Alternate Method of Entry. If a Participant exceeds an applicable Entry Limit for a Prize Draw, all entries in excess of the Entry Limit will be void and ineligible to win. ClubFunder will not refund Participants for any Entry Fees that the Participant paid for those void and ineligible entries that exceed the applicable Entry Limit.
2. Required Information: Participants must provide all required information specified on the Prize Draw’s page or entry form to be eligible to enter and win.
3. Valid Email Address: Participants must not use multiple email addresses or identities to enter our Prize Draws, and doing so may void all entries for that Participant and result in disqualification of the Participant at the Promoter’s discretion. To receive valid entries, at the time of submission, a Participant must provide a valid email address for which the Participant is the authorised owner. Multiple Participants may not share the same email address. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of any Participant, the authorised account holder of the email address used to enter will be deemed to be the Participant. The “authorised account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an internet access provider, online service provider or other organisation responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Potential Winners and/or Winners (as defined below) may be required to show proof of being the authorised account holder. Any entries connected to an invalid, non- working, or inactive email address, or linked to an authorised account holder other than Participant, are void and ineligible to win.
4. No Automated Entry Devices: All entries must be submitted by the individual Participant to be valid. Use, or attempted use, of any robotic, automated, programmed, mechanical, or other non-manual entry methods, will void all entries for that Participant and result in disqualification of the Participant from all Prize Draws, at the Promoter’s discretion. No copies, facsimiles, or other mechanical or electronic reproductions of entries will be accepted. The Promoter, using its reasonable discretion, will determine whether a Participant has used or attempted to use any such prohibited automated entry methods.
5. Contact Details: By entering any Prize Draw, you agree that ClubFunder may contact you via email, phone, and post in connection with the Prize Draw in accordance with the Privacy Policy.

WINNER DRAWINGS: Potential winner(s) of a Prize Draw (each a “Potential Winner” ) will be selected using a verifiably random process from among all eligible entries received. The drawing will occur on or after the end of the Entry Period or as specified in the applicable Additional Rules. The selected winning entry will be announced on the Website following the drawing, with the identity of the winner announced (subject to Section 9 and Section 13) following the completion of all identification and verification processes in accordance with these Official Rules. Once confirmed and verified as eligible to win, a Potential Winner is referred to herein as a “Winner”. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received during the Entry Period.
WINNER NOTIFICATION PROCESS: Potential Winners will be contacted using the email address used to enter the Prize Draw and may be awarded the Prize(s) subject to confirmation of verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these Official Rules (including the applicable Additional Rules and Additional Rules). Potential Winners must respond to the Potential Winner notification email within the time frame indicated in the Potential Winner notification email, If a Potential Winner fails to respond to the notification email within the stated timeframe, then that Potential Winner may be disqualified and will forfeit any claim to any Prize(s). After sending the Potential Winner notification email, to the extent a phone number has been provided, the Promoter reserves the right to also contact Potential Winners via telephone or any other appropriate method.
CONFIRMATION AND VERIFICATION OF POTENTIAL WINNERS: A Potential Winner will only be confirmed as the winner eligible to receive the Prize(s) after the Promoter has completed verification of Potential Winner’s eligibility to win and confirmed Potential Winner’s compliance with the Official Rules (including the applicable Additional Rules and Additional Rules). The Potential Winner must be willing and able to claim and/or accept the Prize(s) in full in the period specified by the Promoter.

To be confirmed and verified as eligible to win, a Potential Winner and the Potential Winner’s guest(s), if applicable, must comply with these Official Rules (including the applicable Additional Rules and Additional Rules). Subject to Section 19, the Promoter’s decisions are final and binding in all matters related to the administration, operating, drawing, verification of the Winner, and all issues related to the Prize Draws.
